    I'm a reporter in Mobile Alabama. I work for WKRG News 5. I'm trying to do a story on hypermiling. I would love to find someone in the Mobile, Pensacola and or Biloxi area to talk to.

    I'm on a deadline so I need to hear from some people ASAP. If you practice hypermiling please give me a call when you can 251-442-4906. You could also PM me or e-mail [email protected]

    My husband is now a hypermiler, but only because we just bought a Prius, and it has the consumption screen that lets you know how you are doing in 5 minute increments. His gas mileage has greatly improved in the 3 weeks since we bought the car. He fills up at half a tank just to check himself out. I don't get to drive much, seems I wreck his average!

    Please don't "slant" the story by focusing on dangerous techniques!
